Mikhail Zlatopolsky in his interview and anything where you can capture his lowest notes in Opera, he was the lowest and loudest of all time. You also may want to check out Glenn Miller singing his song "A basso profundo am I" Mikhail Zlatopolsky in "Thy Divine Supper" will blow your mind
I'd love to hear you react to "wanderin star" by the actor lee marvin, who had a very deep bass voice. The song that stopped the beatles "let it be" from reaching no.1!
Not sure I like so much vocal fry in a song. At any rate, Geoff just released Shenandoah -- run, don't saunter over to his channel and check it out. Bring tissues...it's gorgeous!
There's a funny vid of Avi meeting Tim backstage before a PTX concert. When it was time to hit the stage Avi was saying "how am I supposed to go out and sing the baseline with him in the audience?"
Yes Brady! I agree. I'd love to hear Maggie react to Tim Riley of Gold City. Especially "The Midnight Cry" when Ivan Parker sang lead! They were truly great!!! And great people as well! They did a great version ok n of "Walk that Lonesome Road" that would be a great comparison.
@@mastermonster195able another bass that’s fantastic and I don’t think he ever got his due is Gene McDonald from the Florida Boys, check out the live version of Ring those Golden Bells if you haven’t ever seen it. My favorite of all time is still George Younce.
Notice that when he finishes phrase from the song "lonesomeroad" in B1? So, this is the music key, in B. And the end of the song when he sings "lonesomeroad" it's a B1, but he goes down an octave, B0. I listened to several of this song and took the test on the 88-key keyboard. And it worked. It's a B0 Hope this helps. Peace from 🇧🇷.
I saw Tim live back before 2010 when he was a part of Rescue. Effortless and clean lows. Suggest trying to find some Rescue songs for a reaction as well. Tim isn't the bass singer on all their music. They have some great original arrangements and other superb voices.
Tim Storms holds the Guinness record for hitting the lowest note. It's the musical note G-7, and it registered at 0.189 Hertz. He also holds the record for the widest vocal range, of 10 octaves.
i thought the 10 octave range was when he hit a G-5 and obviously him going 2 octaves lower will make it a 12 octave vocal range, some ppl say bs with the claim 'cause no audio clip or somethin but eh whatever, oscillation is still oscillation
honestly i never care about being lower or the lowest since it just sound like an engine or a clocks ticking or a really slow metronome, just happy i can still hit low first to zero octave notes over 50 dB ten feet apart my recording phone
@@MonsieurMaskedMan, I am perfectly happy with my B1-C5, unprocessed range. Those super low notes don't really do much in a choral setting, which is what I was raised doing.
@@johndeeregreen4592 yeah i mean not a lot of super low notes are being written for choir unless its russian othodox but yeah i am happy with my range, my chest range just stopped at around C4 but with extended range i can go up to A#6 in Falsetto, and C7 to A#8 in Whistle notes
I have a very low projected operatic bass voice but it is pretty much fry after Eb1. I don't doubt the man's ability, after all he has vocal cords twice the size of the normal man
In an interview, Tim Foust mentions that in Southern Gospel there are crazy low basses. From what I hear, Tim Storms sings everything in full chest and in full volume. Elliott Robinson (former bass of Home Free and also invisible bass of Das Sound Machine in Pitch Perfect 2) and some others can also sing that low in chest voice, but nit fully projected. So, they have to be extremely close to the microphone. Tim Foust and Geoff Castellucci resort to non modal techniques for those extremely low notes. While Tim Foust is a master of growl, Geoff Castellucci, prefers subharmonics. (BTW: there is a nice video of Voiceplay with many guest singers, where Geoff and Tim switch techniques.)
Southern Gospel as a genre is severely underappreciated. The quartets in particular have historically had some of the best "parts" singers in the universe.
@@daventunes3822 That is actually how I discovered Southern gospel. I was looking for good male voices, mainly bass and low baritone. And I found them. 😃
From the guinness book of records. "The lowest vocal note produced by a male is G -7 (0.189 Hz) and was achieved by Tim Storms (USA) at Citywalk Studios in Branson, Missouri, USA, on 30 March 2012. Timothy is the bass singer for the vocal group 'Pierce Arrow'. The attempt was witnessed by two college music professors and an acoustician. The frequency output of Timothy's voice was measured using Bruel & Kjaer equipment (low frequency microphone, precision sound analyser and laptop for post analysis)."
Found this in March 2023, looking for something else. Tim Storm is obviously someone to be reckoned with. So much talent to be blessed with. I will look u his work. Thanks for your information. I'm 81, and it's not very often that I have the opportunity to be wowed. Wow and double WOW.
If you really want to have fun with this one. Listen on a system with a sub. Put the sub as far away from the other speakers as possible. Then listen to Tim just sing out of the sub for most of the song.
Some of the boost is probably microphone proximity effect. You can get software for your computer that will identify the fundamental frequencies for you. I don't have a frequency counter but I brought up my spectrum analyzer and indeed the E1 is the primary low note but in some of his slides he is hitting D1 and C1 (32Hz) and possibly B0. OK Definitely B0.
I literally just found this guy tonight and immediately searched for reactions. Yours is the first and did NOT disappoint! Loved watching your face. Much the same as mine! Haha. Wow wow wow!!
My father is a Church of Christ Preacher (Minister) and he took me to a conference that was a weekend of meetings when I was younger and it was super boring. However, in between the meetings, they had an hour break because Vocal Union was hosting an indoor concert in the same area, so we got to go listen to them. My dad and I bonded listening to Christian Accapella music when I was a kid and we got to see Tim Storms live with Vocal Union. It was incredible! Hearing him on stage and feeling your whole body vibrate from his bass notes is so amazing. First time in my life I ever experienced something like that. I was having so much fun haha. That was many years ago, but I got to speak to him and he was such a nice person. I still have CD's of Vocal Union and occassionally listen to them . Most bass singers I have ever heard of in general though, are normally down to earth people. But the Christian Accapella community is such a fun community to look into and listen to. If you haven't listened to JD Sumners yet, you need to listen to him as well. There aren't many songs I know where he is alone on RUclips to my knowledge, but watching his group sing "Just A Little Talk With Jesus" Live in a conference room with a bunch of other Church singers is such a fun song to listen to and analyze. Also, the singers in the background are not him. It is the rest of Vocal Union as this song was released on their album, featuring him as the soloist.
Hey Maggie! I would love to see your reaction to a young up and coming bass singer Tomi P! Specifically his arrangements of Hellfire, Mary Don't You Know, and Sweet Dreams, as they are probably his best productions. He is incredibly talented, and CRIMINALLY underrated! Plus I think you would just enjoy those pieces overall!
Thank you for your lovely comment and welcome to the channel! Hope to see you today at the Premiere and tomorrow on the Live Stream! Happy Holidays! 🤗💟
@@maggiereneemusic Thanks so much! Appreciate the time you took to comment. I'm a musician myself and truly appreciate the work you do. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
This song and the rendition is nearly exactly as the late great bass J.D. Sumner sang it many many years ago. J.D. Sumner was a great gospel bass and also sang backup for Elvis Presley. Give a listen to J.D. Sumner's rendition of this song. I imagine it is available.
Maggie - Storms is impressive. But to really "hear" that you need to be used to it - someone who plays an instrument that can approach that (String Bass, Tuba, as well as sub contra instruments) can "hear" the differences easier . I've heard / played my string bass at 38 Hz and I can easily tell a 1 Hz difference in tone down there. However, my own vocal range doesn't begin to approach that in bass - I'm more of a tenor. Look for the OctoBass for some low tones (Amazing Bass / Amazing Octobass)
Most bass singers are only good to the 12th fret on the low E string on a bass. I can reach the open A string in chest... Tim takes it to the next level.
9:12 "I don't listen to stuff that's that low, ever, like who sings that?" I do! Discovering subharmonics has been one of the most fun things to ever happen to me and I'd like to think I'm singing with him. Not near as well of course, nor quite as low, but he's not the only one going that low cause he can.
Maggie, This was fun. I love your reactions, the edits, the messups, and music vocal breakdowns. Your mind was soundly blown. Very funny. All this is fine but i want to know more of the Martial Artist Maggie. The one we see in the intro. Maybe she can make an appearance sometime? Pretty Please.
Eyes popped and jaw dropped this reaction was like lightning in a bottle 😆 Again, thank you for posting this one Maggie. I look forward to the next reaction stream 😁
I have heard some other bassists sing that low. I don't remember his name, but he was associated with the Gaither Vocal Band. He was rattling the speakers.
Everyone has hears the joke about the ability to sing bass depends on the length og hair. I'm not 100% sure, but I think Tim, Tim and Geoff are all August babies so may he that's another correlation? I say this with humour and appreciation. This has to be one of the most entertaining reactions I've seen. Happy new year Maggie!
I gotta mention that since Tim usually warms up his voice by listening to J.D. Sumner and The Stamps, if you don't know who J.D. was, he was singing with Elvis Presley. J.D held back then the lowest not for 20 year's. Well anyway I mentioned to Tim to record this one that J.D wrote one night on tour with Elvis. You have to put 2 pianos together and you'll see. J.d has it recorded too and it exits on many different places with different groups. J.D. SUMNER AND THE MASTERS FIVE.
Storms' Guinness World Record for the lowest note produced by a human was first certified in January 2002. Storms also holds the Guinness World Record for the widest vocal range for a male. His records have been published in the Guinness World Records 2006. He broke both of these records in August 2008. As of 2008, the new record for lowest note was 0.7973 Hz, and the new record for Widest Vocal Range For Any Human was ten octaves. In 2012, Storms reclaimed the record for the Lowest Note Produced by a Human. The new record is G−7, or 0.189 Hz, eight octaves below the lowest G on the piano, or just over seven octaves below the piano. The most recent published record is in the 2020 Guinness Book of World Records.
Maggie; bass singers in the Southern Gospel field, especially in the 50's and 60's sang in what was usually referred to as sub-octave bass. I don't know if that's a proper term? But J.D. Sumpter of the Stamps Quartet and Big Chief Weatherington of the 'Statesmen' and more recently Tim Riley of Gold City and the Kingdom Heirs bass at 'Dollywood'. (I can't recall his name right now) come to mind. J. D. previously held the Guinness record for lowest sang note by a human. J. D. and the Stamps backed up Elvis in Vegas in these 70's also. I got to sing in a concert with J. D. once. He was an awesome entertainer and character! Seemed to never meet a stranger. He's gone now. I miss him and many more of the old 'Southern Gospel Greats'! Especially Jack Toney (Lead singer) of the Statesmen in the 60"s. We where both from the 'Sand Mountain's area of Alabama. He'd come and here me sing occasionally around 20 years ago. I grew on as a kid going to hear him and the Statesmen. Great memories. He was the reason I wanted to sing Southern Gospel Music.
Hi Maggie, thank you for clarifying that for me. I thought JD Sumner had been knocked off the throne as lowest bass. JD was given the title lowest bass when he hit I believe it was a C0... or could have been a couple notes lower. Anyway look up JD Sumner, he started his career with the Blackwood Brothers then in the mid 70's he formed his own group JD Sumner and the Stamps and toured with Elvis till he died. JD is passed away now he spent the last of his 10 years traveling with Bill Gaither, and became good friends with Mark Lowry. (Incidentally the guy that wrote "Mary did you know. ")
I’d like to to recommend Rammstein’s Mein Hertz Brennt (either official version) the Madison Square Gardens version of Engel or Rammlied. Great baritone voice and extremely powerful performances.
I got to see JD Summer back in the early 90s. He almost blew the speakers while warming up and backed off a bit. JD liked to play around with songs. But the one I heard him play with the most, to show off his lows was There's A Light Shining In Me. I think that's the name. I used to have it on a record and a cassette.(Yes, I'm old). I don't know music terminology. But JD frowned on low notes that had no music quality to them. I don't know that he was ever tested like that or not. Guiness now counts those notes, whereas they didn't used to count them, whatever they're called.
Maggie is more than Shooketh, she's Shooketh eth eth. I've seen a video when Tim showcased his range, he went so low you couldn't hear much at all. They say he goes so low that only Elephants can hear him. As much as that may sound farfetched, I believe it.
He did two other videos with the ALPHA SOUND channel that I like even better. In those videos, he sings the bass line of a choir, but his voice still really shines. It sounds amazing! I highly recommend you check them out.
So we have Dimash who can sing alien high notes, and now I see this man who can go so low that I have hard time hearing him? Ahem...so...ambulance...please...pick me up. Like imagine if there was a person who had vocal range combined of these 2 persons.... Like you could go from insanely low G-7 to friking D8. Like imagine if that person existed... Like... Just imagining it sounds SCARY. I'm sorry but my brain is melting from all of this...
hahahahahaha. he is just purring!! that is hilarious. I do feel you however Maggie. This was so insane to listen to this first time that my brains also went - it does not compute. I will however just listen to this the whole day.
It's very hard listening to low frequencies. They generally say that no one can hear below about 20 Hz. And most speakers can't go that low. Subwoofers may be able to, but you mostly feel those. From listening to speech on tiny speakers, I think I know some of what is happening. There's often a click with lots of high frequency content when the vocal cords open. And you can hear the clicks at lower frequencies. So if his vocal chords were vibrating at B0, or 20.69 Hz, you might hear clicks at that frequency, which does tend to make it sound lower, and then hear the first harmonic at B1. It's only a theory on my part based on what I've heard. I haven't gotten out the Brüel and Kjær equipment and analyzed things, which is apparently what Guiness did to verify the G-7 a 0.189 Hz. I did have a Brüel and Kjær microphone when I was recording data for speech synthesis in the 80's, and before that, in college, I was soldering tungsten wires onto the tips of needles to make hotwire anemometers. But it seems unlikely that anyone will offer either money or a degree for analysis of the mechanism of perception of subsonic sounds transmitted through speakers. After all, we can't really hear them...
Hey Maggy, how I adore your reactions, thank you for sharing your emotions and just good music. Have a listen to two South African singers: Corlea Botha (swart koffie) and Nianell. They are easy to find on Spotify or RUclips. These singers really deserve to be heard.
This is what I could find. How low can he go? Turns out, ludicrously, earth-shatteringly low… Since 2012, Tim Storms has held the world record for the lowest ever vocal note - that's a deliciously gravelly G -7 (0.189 Hz), which is eight octaves below the lowest G on the piano.Feb 17, 2021
His "lowest recorded note" is bs. He is not making his vocal chords move back and forth once every 5 seconds. If you pluck a rubber band with your finger, you can stretch it looser and looser to get lower notes. But eventually it's so loose that it doesn't make sound anymore and just flops around. Same applies to the human voice. Even if he is making his throat move once every 5.2 seconda, it's meaningless as a sound. You could just as easily say that the earth's rotation is a G -21. One day is 21 octaves below G0 but thats meaningless as a sound
@@quinism1136 I only shared what I found online. I know next to nothing about vocal cords and stuff. What you posted makes sense to me. But I am not a vocalist nor a doctor so I don't know.
Check out JD Sumner singing "Blessed Assurance". I believe that was the song that put in in the Guiness Book yrs ago. He was with Elvis for the last 7 yrs.
So far I haven’t been able to train my ear to distinguish subs from growls from chest fry. Is anybody on here able to tell the diff? Are the low notes subs? I’m thinking no, but not certain.
Finally a vid that actually shows his voice hitting the claimed notes. Realistic in a normal choral environment? Not really, but still pretty cool and worth a Guinness.
E0 is nothing for Tim Storms, though when going that low our ear wants to pick up the overtones more than the fundamental, could also be bouncing between the two like Freddie Mercury does. Its throat singing, subharmonics. Any singer can learn it too :) whatever you think your lowest note is.. You can drop it by at least one octave using subharmonic technique Also using this technique, the singer feels as if they are using chest or head voice. You sing in the regular octave, but by causing tension and relaxation in different parts of your throat the octave below comes out Once that is learned you can then learn octave + a fifth, two octaves, two octaves and a fifth, and et cetera (our throat seems to be based off the pentatonic scale) lol, actually tho
🎙🎙🎙 I do not believe that Guinness record at all... Hertz is defined as cycles per second, 1hz is one up and down cycle each second and would sound like a second hand... The lowest note possible on your piano is 27.5Hz... to get to that 0.189 Hz is one cycle every 5.45 seconds! I can snap my fingers at that speed and it is no longer a "sound" as much as a series of pulses... even if you were to consider both the rising and falling portion of each cycle separately, that is still a high (or low) every 2.22 seconds and still merely a pulse... The lowest frequency to have been "heard" is 1.5Hz which is still almost twice as fast as the 2.22 seconds between beats to reach the best case scenario... To give another example, the low end of a standard resting heartbeat is 60 beats per minute (1Hz) and would still be over twice as fast as even the most generous comparison... at the longest range of once every 5.45 seconds, that would only be 11 Beats per minute... That is even faster than a very slow clap... try clapping your hands only once every 2 seconds... now do it every five seconds... those are pulses, not sound. This claim is saying that Tim Storms is capable of beating EVERY animal on the planet for lowest "note" possible and is supposedly even lower than the clicks of whale song. One further way of looking at it is that is also a normal speed of BREATHING!!!
Subharmonics are when you maintain a note B1 but you can train your false chords to vibrate at a fraction of the speed. This ADDS a subharmonic note in the EQ. Many can use other structures in the mouth to isolate those lows by absorbing the higher EQ…but Tim doesn’t do this…he is adding the B0 to his B1 with subharmonics…
A little respect for Paul Robeson who not only lays out the low notes but actually makes music out of them. 1936 version of Old Man River is gorgeous. 😅As are Shenandoah, Swing Low Sweet Chariot and Some Enchanted Evening. Mr. Robeson not only sings low but he sings well. Hate his politics but love his music.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the new Pentatonix video reaction I recently posted? Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
Ya he is one of the most if not the most impressive basses of all time, but I'm really not sure what sense to make of his record G-7 "note". It's way below the scale of human hearing, like 6 octaves below. G-7 equates to .189 Hz which I understand to be one flap of the vocal folds every 5.3 seconds which makes no sense to me. They obviously used sound analyzer equipment, and I'm not sure how it was set up to pick up that frequency. Regardless, it's not a note in my opinion... maybe you could classify it as a sound but even then, I mean I can move my had in the air and create a pressure wave every 5.3 seconds. It's not exactly the same because it doesn't have the same waveform, but similar principle.
Your problem is that you are not an elephant. Per Wiki: "Storms' record-setting sounds are so low as to be infrasonic, incapable of being perceived by the human ear. The 2012 record requires more than five seconds for the vocal cords to oscillate once, which raises questions about the physical validity of the tests...Storms is a deep bass (basso profondo).[7] He possesses a vocal range of 10 octaves (G/G#−5 to G/G#5).[8] He has extended his lower range to G−7 (0.189 Hz) while breaking his own record for the widest vocal range for a male singer.[9] His lowest frequencies can only be heard by elephants and various animals that use low frequencies for communication, as well as dedicated scientific measurement devices
It sounds like an octave down because its heavily edited vocal fry. If you listen to unedited 1st octave notes by actual basso profundos, they really sound like 1st octave notes.
If you are really interested in the lowest voice ever, then you need to check out Karlstrom with the Danish symphony orchestra and choir. He did a version of Misty Mountains that I swear is the lowest recorded version! I forget his first name but I will check.
Here are his stats Storms is a bass (basso profondo).[6] He possesses a vocal range of 10 octaves (G/G#−5 to G/G#5).[7] He has extended his lower range to G−7 (0.189 Hz) while breaking his own record for the widest vocal range for a male singer.[8] His lowest frequencies can only be heard by elephants and various animals that use low frequencies for communication, as well as dedicated scientific measurement devices.[9]
Fun fact, he was at the pentatonix show I saw way back in like 2014 when avi was still in the group. They met up backstage I think too. It's on some tour vlog I think. Storms was in a group in Branson and I was so tempted to white trash vegas for him. But he left that group by the time I learned that.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the new Pentatonix video reaction I recently posted? Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
I sat next to a cheerleader in Camerata (Choir) and she leaned over and whispered in my ear that she loved my singing especially when it made her chair vibrate. We had just finished practicing a piece by Aleksandr Grechaninov. As a double bass I would kind of roll around in the lower octaves. At 17 the girls didn’t tease me about it they seemed to like it.
Ive seen other clips of his singing and tuning. He can go to b-1 but its so low frequency u cant hear it properly with naked ears so he stays out of that voxal range when singing pieces.

From the guinness book of records.
"The lowest vocal note produced by a male is G -7 (0.189 Hz) and was achieved by Tim Storms (USA) at Citywalk Studios in Branson, Missouri, USA, on 30 March 2012. Timothy is the bass singer for the vocal group 'Pierce Arrow'. The attempt was witnessed by two college music professors and an acoustician. The frequency output of Timothy's voice was measured using Bruel & Kjaer equipment (low frequency microphone, precision sound analyser and laptop for post analysis)."
To put it in perspective, his register is so low, the human ear can't hear it, but it is a frequency that an elephant can sense. That is crazy low!
At 0.189hz, a single oscillation length is 5 seconds!
Found this in March 2023, looking for something else. Tim Storm is obviously someone to be reckoned with. So much talent to be blessed with. I will look u his work. Thanks for your information. I'm 81, and it's not very often that I have the opportunity to be wowed. Wow and double WOW.
If you really want to have fun with this one. Listen on a system with a sub. Put the sub as far away from the other speakers as possible. Then listen to Tim just sing out of the sub for most of the song.
B0 shaking the block😆
I thought nothing would shake my home theater more than the deep bass at the very start of Edge of Tomorrow. I stand corrected.
Some of the boost is probably microphone proximity effect. You can get software for your computer that will identify the fundamental frequencies for you.
I don't have a frequency counter but I brought up my spectrum analyzer and indeed the E1 is the primary low note but in some of his slides he is hitting D1 and C1 (32Hz) and possibly B0. OK Definitely B0.
Fun reaction. Interesting song. Loved the note from post editor Maggie. Post livestream Dorky appreciates the updates
No wonder he has a Guinness World Record for lowest bass tone for a human. We all had trouble hearing his lowest note as you did. More Tim Storms!
I literally just found this guy tonight and immediately searched for reactions. Yours is the first and did NOT disappoint! Loved watching your face. Much the same as mine! Haha. Wow wow wow!!
My father is a Church of Christ Preacher (Minister) and he took me to a conference that was a weekend of meetings when I was younger and it was super boring. However, in between the meetings, they had an hour break because Vocal Union was hosting an indoor concert in the same area, so we got to go listen to them. My dad and I bonded listening to Christian Accapella music when I was a kid and we got to see Tim Storms live with Vocal Union. It was incredible! Hearing him on stage and feeling your whole body vibrate from his bass notes is so amazing. First time in my life I ever experienced something like that. I was having so much fun haha. That was many years ago, but I got to speak to him and he was such a nice person. I still have CD's of Vocal Union and occassionally listen to them . Most bass singers I have ever heard of in general though, are normally down to earth people. But the Christian Accapella community is such a fun community to look into and listen to. If you haven't listened to JD Sumners yet, you need to listen to him as well. There aren't many songs I know where he is alone on RUclips to my knowledge, but watching his group sing "Just A Little Talk With Jesus" Live in a conference room with a bunch of other Church singers is such a fun song to listen to and analyze.
Also, the singers in the background are not him. It is the rest of Vocal Union as this song was released on their album, featuring him as the soloist.
I hope he does books on tape! I could listen to that voice forever!
Yes, that would be awesome! I'm enjoying Goeff's reading he has posted!
Hey Maggie! I would love to see your reaction to a young up and coming bass singer Tomi P! Specifically his arrangements of Hellfire, Mary Don't You Know, and Sweet Dreams, as they are probably his best productions. He is incredibly talented, and CRIMINALLY underrated! Plus I think you would just enjoy those pieces overall!
Thank you for your lovely comment. Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
HI, never ever heard a voice like this man.........it's amazing. love from Portugal
New to the channel. You rock! Keep up the amazing work!
Thank you for your lovely comment and welcome to the channel! Hope to see you today at the Premiere and tomorrow on the Live Stream! Happy Holidays! 🤗💟
@@maggiereneemusic Thanks so much! Appreciate the time you took to comment. I'm a musician myself and truly appreciate the work you do. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
He is the best bass singer I found him after listening to Geoff.
i just love your reactions and the matching emojis
This song and the rendition is nearly exactly as the late great bass J.D. Sumner sang it many many years ago. J.D. Sumner was a great gospel bass and also sang backup for Elvis Presley.
Give a listen to J.D. Sumner's rendition of this song. I imagine it is available.
Maggie - Storms is impressive. But to really "hear" that you need to be used to it - someone who plays an instrument that can approach that (String Bass, Tuba, as well as sub contra instruments) can "hear" the differences easier . I've heard / played my string bass at 38 Hz and I can easily tell a 1 Hz difference in tone down there. However, my own vocal range doesn't begin to approach that in bass - I'm more of a tenor. Look for the OctoBass for some low tones (Amazing Bass / Amazing Octobass)
Most bass singers are only good to the 12th fret on the low E string on a bass. I can reach the open A string in chest... Tim takes it to the next level.
9:12 "I don't listen to stuff that's that low, ever, like who sings that?" I do! Discovering subharmonics has been one of the most fun things to ever happen to me and I'd like to think I'm singing with him. Not near as well of course, nor quite as low, but he's not the only one going that low cause he can.
Maggie, This was fun. I love your reactions, the edits, the messups, and music vocal breakdowns. Your mind was soundly blown. Very funny. All this is fine but i want to know more of the Martial Artist Maggie. The one we see in the intro. Maybe she can make an appearance sometime? Pretty Please.
Was that Peter Barber's channel we saw pop up briefly there? :)
Yep it is purring!! I do believe this is actually what cats throats must be doing, but of course hes more a similar size to a lion than a kitty :P
LOL! Thank you for your lovely comment. Hope to see you later today for my FUN Reactions Livestream?
Great reaction, Maggie!!
Thank you for your lovely comment. Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
Eyes popped and jaw dropped this reaction was like lightning in a bottle 😆 Again, thank you for posting this one Maggie. I look forward to the next reaction stream 😁
Garage band (an app on my iPhone/ipad) goes to the -2 octave. I’m pretty sure that’s an E0, but on super low notes I have trouble distinguishing.
Hi maggi love your content
This will be interesting. 😎
😊
I have heard some other bassists sing that low. I don't remember his name, but he was associated with the Gaither Vocal Band. He was rattling the speakers.
Everyone has hears the joke about the ability to sing bass depends on the length og hair. I'm not 100% sure, but I think Tim, Tim and Geoff are all August babies so may he that's another correlation? I say this with humour and appreciation. This has to be one of the most entertaining reactions I've seen. Happy new year Maggie!
Ivan Rebroff had a very large voice range of four and a half octaves, which was noted in the Guinness Book of Records in 1993
I gotta mention that since Tim usually warms up his voice by listening to J.D. Sumner and The Stamps, if you don't know who J.D. was, he was singing with Elvis Presley. J.D held back then the lowest not for 20 year's. Well anyway I mentioned to Tim to record this one that J.D wrote one night on tour with Elvis.
You have to put 2 pianos together and you'll see.
J.d has it recorded too and it exits on many different places with different groups. J.D. SUMNER AND THE MASTERS FIVE.
I have perfect pitch and could hear all the low notes perfectly... what a super deep voice
The last note is B0 .
Storms' Guinness World Record for the lowest note produced by a human was first certified in January 2002. Storms also holds the Guinness World Record for the widest vocal range for a male. His records have been published in the Guinness World Records 2006. He broke both of these records in August 2008. As of 2008, the new record for lowest note was 0.7973 Hz, and the new record for Widest Vocal Range For Any Human was ten octaves.
In 2012, Storms reclaimed the record for the Lowest Note Produced by a Human. The new record is G−7, or 0.189 Hz, eight octaves below the lowest G on the piano, or just over seven octaves below the piano. The most recent published record is in the 2020 Guinness Book of World Records.
Soon he'll just breath in and make a -0.1 Hz Note xD making him the first person that dropped below zero
That was amazing
Nicely done good job
I don't think my speakers could reproduce some of the notes he was hitting. The subwoofer just started rattling at it's harmonic frequency.
Reciting a comment from his original video which definitely makes sense: "This dislodged my kidney stones. Thanks!" 🤣
Maggie; bass singers in the Southern Gospel field, especially in the 50's and 60's sang in what was usually referred to as sub-octave bass. I don't know if that's a proper term? But J.D. Sumpter of the Stamps Quartet and Big Chief Weatherington of the 'Statesmen' and more recently Tim Riley of Gold City and the Kingdom Heirs bass at 'Dollywood'. (I can't recall his name right now) come to mind. J. D. previously held the Guinness record for lowest sang note by a human. J. D. and the Stamps backed up Elvis in Vegas in these 70's also. I got to sing in a concert with J. D. once. He was an awesome entertainer and character! Seemed to never meet a stranger. He's gone now. I miss him and many more of the old 'Southern Gospel Greats'! Especially Jack Toney (Lead singer) of the Statesmen in the 60"s. We where both from the 'Sand Mountain's area of Alabama. He'd come and here me sing occasionally around 20 years ago. I grew on as a kid going to hear him and the Statesmen. Great memories. He was the reason I wanted to sing Southern Gospel Music.
Thank you for your comment. Hope to see you tomorrow on my Premiere of a new reaction video to Jeannie C Riley?
I wonder how he sounds when he wakes up
Or when he’s sick.
Tim Storm said that the older he got, the deeper his voice went. So we’ll have to watch Foust carefully… like stalkerish (just kidding).
It's completely normal and common that male voices deepen with age.
What's going to be fun is watching WTFoust expand his range and for sure how low he gets as he gets older! 😊
Hey Maggie your face is so perfect for these reactions..Have You Reacted To The Wellermen Rendition Of "Hoist The Colours "? You Reeeaaaaaaly Should ❤
Hi Maggie, thank you for clarifying that for me. I thought JD Sumner had been knocked off the throne as lowest bass. JD was given the title lowest bass when he hit I believe it was a C0... or could have been a couple notes lower. Anyway look up JD Sumner, he started his career with the Blackwood Brothers then in the mid 70's he formed his own group JD Sumner and the Stamps and toured with Elvis till he died. JD is passed away now he spent the last of his 10 years traveling with Bill Gaither, and became good friends with Mark Lowry. (Incidentally the guy that wrote "Mary did you know. ")
I’d like to to recommend Rammstein’s Mein Hertz Brennt (either official version) the Madison Square Gardens version of Engel or Rammlied. Great baritone voice and extremely powerful performances.
I got to see JD Summer back in the early 90s. He almost blew the speakers while warming up and backed off a bit.
JD liked to play around with songs. But the one I heard him play with the most, to show off his lows was There's A Light Shining In Me. I think that's the name. I used to have it on a record and a cassette.(Yes, I'm old).
I don't know music terminology. But JD frowned on low notes that had no music quality to them. I don't know that he was ever tested like that or not. Guiness now counts those notes, whereas they didn't used to count them, whatever they're called.
Maggie is more than Shooketh, she's Shooketh eth eth. I've seen a video when Tim showcased his range, he went so low you couldn't hear much at all. They say he goes so low that only Elephants can hear him. As much as that may sound farfetched, I believe it.
He did two other videos with the ALPHA SOUND channel that I like even better. In those videos, he sings the bass line of a choir, but his voice still really shines. It sounds amazing! I highly recommend you check them out.
It genuinely cracks me up when you attempt to go super low and bottom out. It just tickles me 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Kind of like Geoff with his sub harmonics that him sound so deep.
Listening to Tim is like getting a back rub from a professional masseuse. Thanks for the brilliant review Maggie.
I believe his range is something like-F5 to F5
So we have Dimash who can sing alien high notes, and now I see this man who can go so low that I have hard time hearing him?
Ahem...so...ambulance...please...pick me up.
Like imagine if there was a person who had vocal range combined of these 2 persons.... Like you could go from insanely low G-7 to friking D8. Like imagine if that person existed... Like... Just imagining it sounds SCARY.
I'm sorry but my brain is melting from all of this...
hahahahahaha. he is just purring!! that is hilarious. I do feel you however Maggie. This was so insane to listen to this first time that my brains also went - it does not compute. I will however just listen to this the whole day.
It's very hard listening to low frequencies. They generally say that no one can hear below about 20 Hz. And most speakers can't go that low. Subwoofers may be able to, but you mostly feel those.
From listening to speech on tiny speakers, I think I know some of what is happening. There's often a click with lots of high frequency content when the vocal cords open. And you can hear the clicks at lower frequencies. So if his vocal chords were vibrating at B0, or 20.69 Hz, you might hear clicks at that frequency, which does tend to make it sound lower, and then hear the first harmonic at B1. It's only a theory on my part based on what I've heard.
I haven't gotten out the Brüel and Kjær equipment and analyzed things, which is apparently what Guiness did to verify the G-7 a 0.189 Hz. I did have a Brüel and Kjær microphone when I was recording data for speech synthesis in the 80's, and before that, in college, I was soldering tungsten wires onto the tips of needles to make hotwire anemometers. But it seems unlikely that anyone will offer either money or a degree for analysis of the mechanism of perception of subsonic sounds transmitted through speakers.
After all, we can't really hear them...
Hey Maggy, how I adore your reactions, thank you for sharing your emotions and just good music.
Have a listen to two South African singers: Corlea Botha (swart koffie) and Nianell. They are easy to find on Spotify or RUclips.
These singers really deserve to be heard.
This is what I could find.
How low can he go? Turns out, ludicrously, earth-shatteringly low… Since 2012, Tim Storms has held the world record for the lowest ever vocal note - that's a deliciously gravelly G -7 (0.189 Hz), which is eight octaves below the lowest G on the piano.Feb 17, 2021
His "lowest recorded note" is bs. He is not making his vocal chords move back and forth once every 5 seconds.
If you pluck a rubber band with your finger, you can stretch it looser and looser to get lower notes. But eventually it's so loose that it doesn't make sound anymore and just flops around. Same applies to the human voice.
Even if he is making his throat move once every 5.2 seconda, it's meaningless as a sound.
You could just as easily say that the earth's rotation is a G -21. One day is 21 octaves below G0 but thats meaningless as a sound
@@quinism1136
I only shared what I found online. I know next to nothing about vocal cords and stuff. What you posted makes sense to me. But I am not a vocalist nor a doctor so I don't know.
Santa didn't bring you a new keyboard "🤔😆. He's show low with control"
Check out JD Sumner singing "Blessed Assurance". I believe that was the song that put in in the Guiness Book yrs ago. He was with Elvis for the last 7 yrs.
So far I haven’t been able to train my ear to distinguish subs from growls from chest fry. Is anybody on here able to tell the diff? Are the low notes subs? I’m thinking no, but not certain.
If only I could be taught to sing. I also have a very deep voice, love knowing someone else uses it
Yeah, it's an E1, but sounds fuller and richer and just...amazing!
Finally a vid that actually shows his voice hitting the claimed notes. Realistic in a normal choral environment? Not really, but still pretty cool and worth a Guinness.
E0 is nothing for Tim Storms, though when going that low our ear wants to pick up the overtones more than the fundamental, could also be bouncing between the two like Freddie Mercury does. Its throat singing, subharmonics. Any singer can learn it too :) whatever you think your lowest note is.. You can drop it by at least one octave using subharmonic technique
Also using this technique, the singer feels as if they are using chest or head voice. You sing in the regular octave, but by causing tension and relaxation in different parts of your throat the octave below comes out
Once that is learned you can then learn octave + a fifth, two octaves, two octaves and a fifth, and et cetera (our throat seems to be based off the pentatonic scale) lol, actually tho
Thank you for your comment. Hope to see you later today for my FUN Reactions Livestream?
🎙🎙🎙 I do not believe that Guinness record at all... Hertz is defined as cycles per second, 1hz is one up and down cycle each second and would sound like a second hand... The lowest note possible on your piano is 27.5Hz... to get to that 0.189 Hz is one cycle every 5.45 seconds! I can snap my fingers at that speed and it is no longer a "sound" as much as a series of pulses... even if you were to consider both the rising and falling portion of each cycle separately, that is still a high (or low) every 2.22 seconds and still merely a pulse... The lowest frequency to have been "heard" is 1.5Hz which is still almost twice as fast as the 2.22 seconds between beats to reach the best case scenario... To give another example, the low end of a standard resting heartbeat is 60 beats per minute (1Hz) and would still be over twice as fast as even the most generous comparison... at the longest range of once every 5.45 seconds, that would only be 11 Beats per minute... That is even faster than a very slow clap... try clapping your hands only once every 2 seconds... now do it every five seconds... those are pulses, not sound. This claim is saying that Tim Storms is capable of beating EVERY animal on the planet for lowest "note" possible and is supposedly even lower than the clicks of whale song. One further way of looking at it is that is also a normal speed of BREATHING!!!
Subharmonics are when you maintain a note B1 but you can train your false chords to vibrate at a fraction of the speed. This ADDS a subharmonic note in the EQ. Many can use other structures in the mouth to isolate those lows by absorbing the higher EQ…but Tim doesn’t do this…he is adding the B0 to his B1 with subharmonics…
A little respect for Paul Robeson who not only lays out the low notes but actually makes music out of them. 1936 version of Old Man River is gorgeous. 😅As are Shenandoah, Swing Low Sweet Chariot and Some Enchanted Evening. Mr. Robeson not only sings low but he sings well. Hate his politics but love his music.
Okay the was a very funny reaction from you. Announcement No flies where swallowed or harmed in the making of this video 🎙
TIM IS A VERY NICE GUY.
You should look him up in the song Mealor: De Profundis with the St. Petersburg choir. Last I looked is the lowest every note written for voice.
There is a video where Tim visited Avi at a Pentatonix concert backstage.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the new Pentatonix video reaction I recently posted? Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
Ya he is one of the most if not the most impressive basses of all time, but I'm really not sure what sense to make of his record G-7 "note". It's way below the scale of human hearing, like 6 octaves below. G-7 equates to .189 Hz which I understand to be one flap of the vocal folds every 5.3 seconds which makes no sense to me. They obviously used sound analyzer equipment, and I'm not sure how it was set up to pick up that frequency. Regardless, it's not a note in my opinion... maybe you could classify it as a sound but even then, I mean I can move my had in the air and create a pressure wave every 5.3 seconds. It's not exactly the same because it doesn't have the same waveform, but similar principle.
Your problem is that you are not an elephant. Per Wiki: "Storms' record-setting sounds are so low as to be infrasonic, incapable of being perceived by the human ear. The 2012 record requires more than five seconds for the vocal cords to oscillate once, which raises questions about the physical validity of the tests...Storms is a deep bass (basso profondo).[7] He possesses a vocal range of 10 octaves (G/G#−5 to G/G#5).[8] He has extended his lower range to G−7 (0.189 Hz) while breaking his own record for the widest vocal range for a male singer.[9] His lowest frequencies can only be heard by elephants and various animals that use low frequencies for communication, as well as dedicated scientific measurement devices
@@BTURNER1961 Pretty sure it's not just my problem lol
It sounds like an octave down because its heavily edited vocal fry. If you listen to unedited 1st octave notes by actual basso profundos, they really sound like 1st octave notes.
If you are really interested in the lowest voice ever, then you need to check out Karlstrom with the Danish symphony orchestra and choir. He did a version of Misty Mountains that I swear is the lowest recorded version! I forget his first name but I will check.
Yeah, but Tim Storms holds the guiness record for the lowest note which is a G-7.
@@Mike_1947 maybe so but is his low notes rich sounding or can you barely hear them?
Thank you for your suggestion! 😊
@@maggiereneemusic FYI: the beginning and ending of singing are not normal.
Zlatopolsky or JD Sumner forever
That was insane!!! He is extremely talented! Ok... Please react to Tim Foust singing Willy you still love me tomorrow/Stay. PLEASE!
😛😃loved it
So glad! 🤗💖
Tim Storm hace temblar la tierra con la profundidad que logra con los sonidos que produce.
Here are his stats Storms is a bass (basso profondo).[6] He possesses a vocal range of 10 octaves (G/G#−5 to G/G#5).[7] He has extended his lower range to G−7 (0.189 Hz) while breaking his own record for the widest vocal range for a male singer.[8] His lowest frequencies can only be heard by elephants and various animals that use low frequencies for communication, as well as dedicated scientific measurement devices.[9]
Fun fact, he was at the pentatonix show I saw way back in like 2014 when avi was still in the group. They met up backstage I think too. It's on some tour vlog I think. Storms was in a group in Branson and I was so tempted to white trash vegas for him. But he left that group by the time I learned that.

Oh man that low B at the end......wow.
I thought I had a deep voice. Girls in high school made fun of me for my deep voice when I was 14, but this guy ...
I sat next to a cheerleader in Camerata (Choir) and she leaned over and whispered in my ear that she loved my singing especially when it made her chair vibrate. We had just finished practicing a piece by Aleksandr Grechaninov. As a double bass I would kind of roll around in the lower octaves. At 17 the girls didn’t tease me about it they seemed to like it.
Ive seen other clips of his singing and tuning. He can go to b-1 but its so low frequency u cant hear it properly with naked ears so he stays out of that voxal range when singing pieces.
as a life long bass.....he just buttered my cheese muffins
Genuis book of world record holder with 12 octaves
Such a lovely tone, wow but 👌
If you can't hear it, it means that you need to use headphones with better frequency response...
